Hm…I can see your angle but some of those can stilll be fun to watch.
Movies can’t always be about deep thought 100% philosophical question of life. That’s tiring for me.
I do want to point out that “legitimate artistry” doesn’t equal “deep thought 100% philosophical” all the time or even most of the time.
Like I think Indiana Jones is legitimate artistry. Same with The Terminator. Or Alien. Or Mad Max. Even Sinners is legitimate artistry. Get Out.
I haven’t seen it yet, but I get the impression that “The Odyssey” was made because Nolan thought the subject matter was interesting.
People have made cool movies for the love of the game forever. I think the big difference is “did an executive come up with this idea in a boardroom?” Or “did a real creative person come up with this idea?”
Yes that’s true but I have a pretty simple algorithm for movies that were “made to sell tickets”

Thanks for explaining your standpoint.
Hereby I stand corrected :)
Are there any movies you like which are an exception to those?
I liked Nolan’s Dark Knight Trilogy… Actually just the first 2.
